Across the 50 most recent content and publishing rounds shown, the largest disclosed amount is $775M for Rumble (2024-12-20), which dwarfs every other disclosed entry; the next-largest disclosed rounds are $760K (Ripstone, 2024-12-17) and $50M (Fabric8Labs, 2025-11-15; ONE Championship, 2024-10-16), making $775M the only round far above the rest of the disclosed range. The list also shows a tight temporal cluster in mid/late December 2024, with multiple deals on 2024-12-20 (Rumble and 1951 Coffee Company) and 2024-12-17 (Ripstone). Stage disclosure is mixed: 18 of 50 rounds are labeled “Series Unknown” and 11 of 50 are “undisclosed,” so only 21 entries show a disclosed funding amount, with amounts ranging from $10K (Sense Music, 2025-05-10) up to $775M (Rumble, 2024-12-20). Geographically, the count of locations spans the US, UK, India, Canada, and multiple EU countries, but California appears repeatedly (e.g., Fabric8Labs 2025-11-15, Skylight Frame 2025-04-03, Substack 2024-11-12, The Lighthouse 2025-06-16), suggesting a recurring West Coast presence in disclosed rounds.

Frequently asked
What’s the biggest disclosed round in this content and publishing set, and how far ahead is it of the rest?
Rumble raised $775M on 2024-12-20, which dwarfs the next-largest disclosed amounts in the table: Ripstone at $760K (2024-12-17) and then the $50M rounds for Fabric8Labs (2025-11-15) and ONE Championship (2024-10-16). No other disclosed entry is in the same order of magnitude as $775M.
Which date window looks most concentrated among these recent rounds?
Late December 2024 is the clearest cluster: two separate entries on 2024-12-20 (Rumble at $775M and 1951 Coffee Company at $150K) plus Ripstone on 2024-12-17 ($760K). Several other deals also sit close by in December (e.g., BeamXR on 2024-12-09 at $340K; C2 on 2024-12-11 at $3M).
Do cities or geographies repeat, especially around disclosed amounts?
California shows multiple appearances: Fabric8Labs (La Jolla) at $50M on 2025-11-15, Skylight Frame (San Francisco) at $30M on 2025-04-03, Substack (San Francisco) at $10M on 2024-11-12, and The Lighthouse (Venice) are all in the list. Outside California, the table also includes repeated UK entries such as Muybridge (Norway) is not UK, but Perlego (London) at $20M (2024-10-08) and C15 Studio (London) with undisclosed amount (2024-09-19) indicate recurring London coverage.
How dominant are stage labels like “Series Unknown” or “undisclosed” compared with named stages?
Disclosure is split: 18 of 50 rows are “Series Unknown” and 11 of 50 are “undisclosed.” Named stages appear in the remainder, including examples like Fabric8Labs as “Venture - Series Unknown” (2025-11-15, $50M), Cloudsmith as “Series B” (2025-03-03, $23M), and Tella as “Seed” (2025-04-23, $2M).
Are there notable small- or mid-range outliers at the low end of disclosed amounts?
The smallest disclosed amount in the table is $10K for Sense Music (2025-05-10, Pre-Seed), far below most other disclosed rounds such as $12M for Specialty Printing (2025-05-06) and $20M for Perlego (2024-10-08). This creates a long lower tail where many named-stage deals still report much smaller figures.
